The Write Stuff

A big congrats to Pam the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast!She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme & layout, but used different images, dies & colors.

On my card, after coloring in the bouquet, I die cut it & fussy cut around the bottom of the image to insert my my greeting oval. I added a mirror gold scallop frame & the large white bg was die cut first w/ a stitched rectangle then again using a diamond pierced cover die. I love the almost quilted look it gives.

A very narrow gold layer was added behind it & a few gems were added to finish.

Here are the Copics I used:

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC860), we are visiting a site called Lady Yard where I found THESE elegant pillows.

My card was made using a couple of new foiling dies. The original is a wave pattern w/ the dots & the other is a solid foiling plate. I used the original one on another card but had all this foil w/ the reverse pattern left, so I used it w/ the solid plate on another piece of white card stock. The roses are a paper/die duo, which makes is super easy to put together, & I die cut a few extra blank shapes to pop theses flowers up. The greeting is a stamp/die duo & I heat embossed using Brilliance lightning black ink & clear powder. The narrow gold layer was made using the solid foiling plate & some leftover strips of the gold foil.

A big congrats to Kim, the newest Featured Stamper (FS798)! She has a beautiful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the colors & vertical layout, but moved the white panel to the other side & used different stamps & dies. 

For my card, I stamped & colored the flowers then die cut the panel. On the pink panel, I die cut it w/ a stitched rectangle then used a new flower swirl piercing die on it. The panel was white & I used some pink inks to sponge it. I added some very narrow black layers & some flower shaped sequins to finish it.

Here are the Copics I used for the flowers:
